The first European final of the season takes place in Istanbul this Wednesday as SC Freiburg take on Aston Villa, with Unai Emery looking to add an unprecedented fifth Europa League to his collection.

The former Arsenal manager has won four finals in five, and a triumph for Aston Villa will mark their first trophy since 1996, and their first European trophy win since 1982. SC Freiburg finished 7th in the Bundesliga, and a win would see them qualify for the Champions League.

The German side have picked up form ahead of this final, with two wins in their last three matches in all competitions with wins over Sporting Braga (3-1) and RB Leipzig (4-1). The upturn in form was needed, as previously, SC Freiburg had lost their last three with defeats to Braga, Borussia Dortmund & VfB Stuttgart.

Aston Villa's place in next season's Champions League is confirmed following their 4-2 win against Liverpool last Friday. The Villains are unbeaten in their last three matches in all competitions, following the win against Liverpool, a win against Nottingham Forest and a subsequent draw against Burnley.
